How to convert MD to HTML
- Add your .MD file - drop it in the box above or click to browse.
- Convert it to .HTML in a few seconds.
- Download your new .HTML file.
What to expect
- The HTML output has no CSS by default - supply a stylesheet for a styled page (Pandoc accepts
--css style.css). - YAML front matter at the top of your
.mdfile is not rendered as visible content; Pandoc places values liketitlein<head>, and other converters may strip the block entirely. - GitHub Flavored Markdown features such as task lists and strikethrough require a GFM-aware converter; in Pandoc add
--from gfmto the command.
Frequently asked questions
Can I convert MD to HTML without installing anything?
Yes - use our converter above or paste your Markdown into dillinger.io and export HTML. No account or software required.
What is the difference between a fragment and a standalone HTML file?
A fragment contains only the body content with no surrounding
<html> or <head> tags. A standalone file (Pandoc -s flag) adds full page structure so a browser can open it directly.Do Markdown tables convert to HTML tables?
Yes - most modern converters turn pipe tables into proper
<table> elements. In Pandoc, add --from gfm if your file uses GitHub Flavored Markdown tables.Does YAML front matter appear in the output?
Not as visible text. Pandoc reads it as metadata and places values like
title in the <head> tag; other converters may strip the block entirely.
